Over the past few years, various financing strategies aimed at capitalizing on just energy transition processes in developing countries have been tested. Within this context, Just Energy Transition Partnerships (JETPs) and National Platforms (NPs) emerged, each with its own distinct logic and dynamics. The purpose of this document is to discuss the strengths and weaknesses that these two innovative financing strategies for just energy transition in developing countries have demonstrated—and continue to demonstrate.

Links between the Just Transition Program and Climate Finance

The decision adopted at the 30th Conference of the Parties (COP30) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) on the UAE Just Transition Work Programme (JTWP) establishes a number of relevant provisions regarding the role of climate finance in implementing just transitions in developing countries. This policy brief analyzes the references to finance included in the JTWP decision and examines their alignment with the corresponding elements of the New Collective Quantified Goal (NCQG) for climate finance, agreed upon in 2024 at COP29 in Baku, Azerbaijan. It also assesses some implications of these alignments for key ongoing discussions on climate finance, including those related to Articles 2.1.c and 9.1 of the Paris Agreement, and presents policy recommendations for the intersessional negotiations in June 2026.

Technical Report

Navigating the just energy transition in Latin America Towards GST2: a stakeholder and policy analysis of Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, and Mexico.

This technical report was prepared as part of the project entitled: Latin America facing GST2: strengthening its role in the transition away from fossil fuels, executed by the energy division of Argentina 1.5. The project is based on the certainty of the region’s potential for a just energy transition and calls for cooperation among countries and multiple actors to mobilize domestic and international political positions toward paths consistent with the Paris Agreement. To do this, it relies on four regional cases: Argentina, Brazil, Colombia and Mexico. The report involves document review and data collection of official policy documents at the national level, such as national plans, strategies, as well as international documents, National Determined Contributions (NDC), Biennial Transparency Reports (BTRs), statements and submissions elaborated by negotiating groups of LAC at the UNFCCC: AILAC and grupo SUR. Also includes a mapping exercise of key stakeholders related but not limited to the energy sector, national energy authorities, UNFCCC negotiators, and NGOs, among others was also conducted.
